Another faint whimper. It seemed to come from the bushes near Alex’s fence.
Another faint whimper. It seemed to come from the bushes near Alex’s fence.
Autumn pulled her phone out of her pocket and turned the flashlight on. Curious, she slowly made her way in the direction the sound had come from.
The bushes rustled as she approached, but instead of the person moving out and away, a gasp of pain could be heard.
“Um… Hello?” Autumn called warily. “Who’s there?”
Whatever was in the bushes seemed to hold their breath. The underbrush paused in movement.
“Whoever it is, you can come out, now,” Autumn said, slowly making her way closer until she was standing right in front of the bush.
(Wait a moment I just realized something. Darn it.
Okay so how long has Autumn and Alex been dating?)
(9 months to a year, I think.)
(Okay… that’s probably not long enough gR)
(For…?)
(We can always make it longer.)
(Okay so I kinda wanted to introduce a smol into their lives so that it prompts Alex to marry her cuz smol reasons
I dunno I just got bored and did the first thing I could think of)
(You wanted them to adopt a kid? That's so cute! I don't see why they couldn't do it now. XD)
(Well, no, not adopt, but like, find, take in and-
Yeah adopt lmao)
(Lol. So… Should we? It'd be super cute!
Boy or girl? I'm thinking girl…)
(Yeah I was thinking girl too. And I was thinking she was like, kidnapped, but she jumped out of the truck, fled and climbed up a few things then fell? So she’s hurt and scared?)
(But then they have to return her to her real parents… Unless they died… Or you were thinking they don't actually fully adopt her…
Otherwise I like it!)
(Ohohoh let’s say the person who kidnapped her broke into her home, killed her parents in a fight for her and THEN took her.)
(That would work! Start us up again, then?)
(Neat. Yes I will.)
Whatever was in the bushes just shifted and gasped in pain again. It stirred meekly against the ground, and even that prompted a flash of pain and a groan.
Okay, so the person was in pain… What was she supposed to do?
Autumn bent down and spoke gently. "I can hear that you're hurt… Please, come out, and I can help you."
There was a faint shifting as they tried to press away from her. It prompted a little outburst of tears from the pain.
Autumn chewed on her lip for a moment before daring to push the bushes away so she could see. She held back a gasp of shock and pressed a hand to her mouth.
It was a little girl… And she looked so beaten and bruised…
"Oh my gosh… Honey, let me help you, please," she practically begged the girl. "Come on…"
(How old are we saying?)
(Ten at minimum, eleven, twelve at most. Your choice.)
The little girl’s pale and slack face had streaks of blood on it that didn’t seem to be hers. Her eyes were overbright, but somehow dulled at the same time. She shifted the best she could away from Autumn, her eyes trained on Autumn’s face and away from the light. Her eyes were a pale gray and her hair was so dirty Autumn couldn’t tell a color.
(I'd do ten.)
"Come on, honey… Please, I'm not going to hurt you. Let me help… Please," Autumn whispered, chewing on her lip as she looked at the poor girl.
